Book Announcement Update...

Things continue to go as planned... now we deal with "World English Rights"... or "World Rights"... thank God for Attorneys.

The joys of writing a book continue. :)

Update 01/13/2010: Once this 'little' issue is resolved... it's expected that the book will be available this Fall. I wish I could name the publisher, title, price, release date, etc... but that's just going to have to wait until the final contract is signed.

Update 01/19/2010: The "World Rights" issue has been resolved... and a publishing contract is expected to be signed within the next week or so. Once this is done, I'll provide more information.

Meanwhile... there hasn't been much going on in regards to Harlow's appeal.

Update 01/20/2010: Initial Contract in-hand... there's likely going to be some changes... but everything looks on schedule. Dotting you're I's and crossing your T's is a good thing.

Update 01/30/2010: An agreement is expected next week :).

Update 02/03/2010: We're just about there... the only thing that hasn't been agreed upon is the sub-title. I think we'll have that resolved by tomorrow.

Update 02/04/2010: I think we've been able to agree on the sub-title, now we get to deal with the "Errors and Ommission insurance policy". The glamorous parts of doing a book deal. :) I just keep reminding myself... "Dotting you're I's and crossing your T's is a good thing... and so are attorneys" :)

Update @ 03/17/2010: Just wanted to give everyone a quick update that the book now appears to be released sometime between Fall 2010 and Spring 2011. We'll be doing an official post shortly.

I just got word about this from the publisher yesterday.

Apparently they had to redo the fall 2010 list in order to accommodate the production budget, which means some books that were planned for release later this year will move to the following spring, 2011.

Perhaps we can get it released in March, wouldn't that be a hoot for timing (again).

  4. PC,

    Did you write the book to support the Kerekes-Cuadra canteen fund? ;)

    The majority of the book contains interviews, information, etc... that have never been made public... so I'd say there's going to be a lot of 'new' things that will be learned.
